Abstract [en]

The multiple, varied, and often conflicting geographies of home are approached as relationally, spatially, and temporarily constituted and examined in many disciplines adopting a multitude of approaches. In cultural and social geography, the physical materiality of home and its imaginative geographies are seen as closely intertwined, in which the home is interpreted as a process of creating and understanding the forms of being at various scales and its representations in literature, art, film, and the virtual world. Feminist, postcolonial, and hybrid geographical approaches have highlighted the contested and negative domestic aspects, although historically the home is defined by feelings of security, familiarity, and nurture. The home is now established as a problematic and ambiguous concept across the social sciences. Likewise in geography the home is defined as a result of distinctive emotional, sensory, and bodily experiences and memories rather than seen as fixed and static physicality in time or space, although the latter approach is again gaining ground due to global migration trends.
